Zeiss OCT ... Next Level Eye Examinations
This is a hospital standard carried out at i2i Optometrists Howard St. using the latest Zeiss equipment.
Many common eye diseases can develop without significant symptoms. Even if your vision and eyes appear perfectly fine, it’s useful to gain a full scan of your retina using an OCT scanner. This test takes a few minutes and is comfortable to undertake. In particular, an OCT scan can help to detect eye conditions like glaucoma, diabetes and age related changes to the retina.
Our Optometrist can look more closely at just how healthy your eyes are. The results are shown in 3D and provide much more information than ever before. The OCT examinations is part of the Free Eye Exam service at i2i Optometrists.
Glaucoma Visual Fields
All eye exams for those over the age of 60 include a detailed measurement of the visual field using the gold standard Zeiss Humphrey Field Screener.
This instrument is the same as used in Eye Hospital Departments. It is used to detect any visual field defects such as may be present in the early stages of Glaucoma or other conditions.
Our Optometrists can also monitor any visual field changes over time to assess progress. In conjunction with OCT this provides us with a comprehensive set of data to help ensure that your eye examination is as comprehensive as possible.
